Navigating Academia and Beyond.

Faculty: Faculty members are St. Xaviers University are very helpful. They always guide students when they are approached. The BMS course is rather a new course which makes it quite unique and interesting to study. Our semester exams are of 100 marks where the passing mark is 40.

Our college provides good infrastructure.

Faculty: Faculty members of commerce and management departments are very kind, good, and helpful. Other departments like arts and social are not veyr friendly. Exams are very difficult. The passing marks are around 40 out of 100. The course does not make you ready for the industry. You need to do something else. It is very textual doesnt make you ready for field work or jobs.

Honest Review of St. Xavier's University, Kolkata by a Mass Communication student.

Faculty: The faculty is great and the curriculum is also very relevant according to today's time. I would say that the teaching quality is average or slightly above average as the professors don't connect deeply with the students and they should be much more free when teaching. Yes, the curriculum is very relevant as it deals with daily challenges and it makes students industry-ready due to the vast varieties of practical work taught by the professors. The semester exams difficulty is moderate and not to...

It has excellent campus life.

Faculty: Faculty members were good. They were experts in their fields. The ratio between faculty members and students was 8:60. All faculty members were highly qualified. The teaching quality was excellent. Three internal exams were conducted where the best of 2 will be added to the final result. If we attended all lectures, we would score good marks in exams.

Our college campus is big and has all the facilities, you would really love it.

Faculty: Our teachers are really helpful and supportive as well as cooperative. The course is really relevant. The semester exams are moderately tough. The papers are lengthy but not tough. Our pass percentage is 40% and is not that tough to score that if you study really thoroughly. Teachers give extra classes if needed and will solve your problems.

Really good infrastructure and hostel facilities.

Faculty: The college sets very moderate papers, if you have gone through the syllabus it is not that tough. Passing marks for every exam is a total's 40%. If you don't get 40% you have to appear for that paper again in 3rd sem. Checking the paper has a good standard.

Excellent infrastructure and facilities but disappointed with the lack of placements.

Faculty: The professors are helpful and knowledgeable as well. You won't hesitate to approach them when required. You will enjoy the course but the industry is such that it might take some time to make you industry ready, but with increasing number of contacts and sources you will get the required help and guidance. The semester exams are not very difficult and you will have to get atleast 40 out of 100 in each paper, failing which you have to appear for arrear tests which are slightly easy and leniently...
